The Haven @ Dijon in Mechanicsville, VA operates as both an Assisted Living program and a state-licensed Residential Care Home, allowing it to admit residents whose needs range from moderate daily oversight to comprehensive long-term support. The community can admit people who wander during the day or night, exhibit behavioral changes, stay awake overnight, or live with advanced dementia. Nurses monitor and coordinate care for residents managing wounds, oxygen therapy, special diets, or diabetes—whether on oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Admission is open to adults under 60 years old when clinically appropriate, and the home accepts residents with co-occurring psychiatric conditions.

A registered nurse and licensed practical nurse are on staff, and a nurse is on call 24/7. All caregivers pass background checks, and an awake night shift provides supervision at all hours. The grounds are secured with perimeter fencing and door alarms. Residents may receive full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting, and staff can perform transfers ranging from standby help to one-person and bed-bound moves. Walker and wheelchair users are accommodated, and the community remains staffed around the clock to respond to urgent needs.

Private and semi-private rooms are available furnished, and many include cable connections; however, not every room offers every feature, so it is best to confirm specific amenities during a tour. Shared living spaces include a living room, TV seating areas, and a fully equipped kitchen that residents may access with staff supervision. A back deck and front covered porch provide outdoor seating options.

Meals are prepared on a set menu that rotates regularly, with the kitchen also accepting on-order requests and physician-directed diet modifications. Three daily meals are complemented by scheduled snacks, and staff can provide total assistance with eating for residents who require it. Diabetic, low-sodium, and other therapeutic diets are coordinated with the nursing team to meet medical guidelines.

Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible entrances, internet service, communal gardens, and weekly or daily housekeeping. Laundry, utilities, and medication management are included, and a preferred pharmacy streamlines refills. Visiting professionals such as therapists and nurse practitioners see residents in-house, while planned activities, religious services, and brief in-house tours keep schedules structured. Bathrooms are available in shared or private configurations, and the home maintains a COVID-free status through ongoing screening protocols.
